A mid rise scissor lift is a machine used to raise vehicles when they need work to be carried out on the underside. The mid lift scissor lift, also known as a mid rise vehicle scissor lift, can also be used when working on a vehicle’s wheels or brake components to bring the vehicle up to a comfortable working height.
Gone are the days when the only way to work on a car was to jack up one side, slide under it, and hope that gravity didn’t overcome your jack. These scissor lifts can lift an SUV-sized vehicle and allow for work to be carried out safely underneath it. Whether you’re restoring a classic or running an auto repair shop, this is an essential piece of equipment you shouldn’t do without.
Mid Rise Scissor Lift – Features and Benefits
Before choosing a mid rise vehicle scissor lift, you need to ensure that its specifications meet or exceed your lifting capacity requirements. Purchasing one of these lifts represents a sizable capital investment for a smaller business, so taking the time to discuss your current and future load-lifting requirements with a manufacturer is essential. When you purchase a mid lift scissor lifts from Handling Specialty, here are some of the benefits you will enjoy:

Convenient 48 Inches Lift Height
If you’re working on brakes or tires, having the vehicle at a comfortable working height is a huge advantage. Being able to lift the vehicle to a height of 4ft enables you to perform any job when it is fully elevated by giving easy access to work underneath the vehicle without the risk of injury.
Easy to Move
This portable mid rise scissor car lift is fitted with wheels making it easy to move around the shop. The wheels are designed to slide on and off easily and are locked in for safety. There’s an optional tow apparatus joined to the mid lift scissor lift, designed to make it easier to move.
Lifting Capacity up to 6000 lbs
With this auto mid rise pad scissor lift, you can raise almost any size of vehicle, from a Smart car to Rolls Royce. This large load-handling capability offers you the flexibility to work on a wide range of vehicle types in complete safety. Just position the vehicle over the lift with a button; the mid rise scissor lift does the rest.
Secure Locking Mechanism
All of our mid lift scissor lifts are designed with operator safety top of mind. Each lift has a safety locking mechanism that will lock the mid-rise vehicle scissor lift in place at the desired height—This safeguards anyone working underneath the vehicle by preventing the lift from being lowered inadvertently. When the button is pressed to lower the lift, the lift will first rise slightly to release the interlock bar, then allow the lift to go down slowly.
Low Profile with a Minimum Lift of 3 Inches
Many high-end and exotic cars have very low ground clearance. Our low-profile mid rise vehicle scissor lift enables vehicles with minimal ground clearance to be positioned over the lift and raised to the preferred working height.
Hydraulic Lift with a Protective Cover for the Cylinder
Hydraulic lifts are some of the strongest and most stable scissor lifts in the market but are often exposed to extreme environments or caustic substances. Our range of mid rise scissor lifts is fitted with a protective cover to keep the hydraulic piston safe from corrosion. This helps to extend the operational life of the mid rise vehicle scissor lift.
Truck Adapters
To make truck jobs a little easier, we include specialized tooling like truck adapters. They provide extra height without compromising the stability of the vehicle or the safety of those working around it.
